Google has not announced a precise date for the arrival of this feature in Chrome Desktop.The firm also plans to make improvements to Google Lens in the coming months by taking advantage of its new MUM algorithm (for Multitask Unified Model).In particular, it will be possible to add questions to a visual search.For example, taking a photo of the broken derailleur from your bike and asking the question "how to repair", Lens will send you back to a repair video tutorial.
